decided on the u.s. response to the drone attack that killed three u.s. service members. the president says he holds iran responsible but warns that the world does not need a wider conflict in the middle east. cbs's david martin is at the pentagon with the military options and their potential fallout. >> reporter: president biden told reporters he has made up his mind how to retaliate for the drone attack which killed three american soldiers in jordan. >> reporter: in an apparent attempt to head off u.s. air strikes, the iranian-backed militia the u.s. blames for sunday's deadly attack announced it was suspending military operations against american forces.

the pentagon spokesman responded by noting there have been three more attacks on u.s. troops since the drone strike in jordan. >> you know, i don't think we could be any more clear that we have called on the iranian-proxy groups to stop their attacks. they have not. and so we will respond in a time and manner of our choosing. >> reporter: the u.s. military is rushing additional air defenses to that base in jordan, which officials acknowledge had not been as well protected against drone attack as american troop locations across the border in iraq and syria. sunday was the first time the outpost, known as tower 22, had been attacked. the drone came in low and slow shortly after parts of the air defense system had been taken off-line to allow a returning american drone to land safely. it was not detected in time and hit the sleeping quarters while troops were still in their beds. officials say plans call for the u.s. to launch a real bombing campaign, not just another round

of one-and-done retaliatory strikes of the kind it has conducted so far. once it begins, the bombing is strikes of the kind it of days. major? >> major: at the pentagon for us, david martin, thank you. tonight, we are learning more about the three soldiers killed in jordan. army specialist breonna moffet and kennedy sanders were posthumously promoted to sergeant today. cbs's manuel bojorquez spoke to sanders' parents about how they hope their daughter will be remembered. >> disbelief, shock, anger. i have so many questions. >> reporter: a heartbroken oneida sanders says her daughter, 24-year-old army reserve sergeant kennedy sanders, was set to return home in august and already had plans to take the next step in her military career. what do you want the world to know about her? >> that kennedy was full of life. she was a breath of fresh air. she was so likable by so many people.

flying over the red sea and houthi territory? >> every day, almost all day, every day. >> norah: vice admiral brad cooper is in charge of the naval fleet and central forces command. their key mission right now defending commercial vessels and protecting navy ships from iranian-backed houthi missiles and drones. >> we have to have this thick layer of defense in place 24/7 and everyone has to be ready 24/7. now, the good news is the united states navy is operating today at the very top of our game, and where there are questions about our readiness, there should be no questions. >> norah: but yet the houthis are still able to attack. >> they are still able to attack, but it has been diminished. if they continue to attack, i think we will continue to diminish their ability to do so. >> norah: the u.s. military has shed on 80 houthi missiles and drones are these vital shipping lanes that carry 15% of global trade. we are here inside the cockpit, we are currently cruising at about 23,000 feet, but we are going to descend to 500 feet above the water to get a very clear picture of what is

happening on the red sea. so would you be able to see from a plan like this whether iran is transporting more of those antiship ballistic missiles to yemen? >> this plane clearly plays a role in it. it has played a role in it in virtually every interdiction we have had over the past couple of years. this aircraft has played a central role in that process. >> norah: just one capability that makes this a useful asset in the navy's current fight. norah o'donnell, cbs news, over the red sea. >> major: in a dramatic raid today, israeli troops disguised as civilian women and medical workers stormed a hospital in the west bank and killed three suspected terrorists. a hospital official says there was no exchange of gunfire. israel says the militants were using the hospital as a hideout and that one militant had been involved in previous attacks. meanwhile, secretary of state antony blinken said on monday there is "real hope" for a gaza hostage deal. even so, lengthy multi-nation talks have yet to produce a

breakthrough. back here in washington, house republicans are moving toward the impeachment of homeland security secretary alejandro mayorkas, in a dispute over the migrant crisis at the southern border. cbs's nikole killion reports today's impeachment hearing comes as the senate nears a bipartisan deal to tighten border security. >> we cannot allow this man to remain in office any longer. the time for accountability is now. >> reporter: the head of the house homeland security committee said republicans had no other choice but to bring forth articles of impeachment against homeland security secretary alejandro mayorkas, claiming a dereliction of duty at the u.s.-mexico border. >> you don't want solutions. you just want politics. >> reporter: democrats accused the g.o.p.-led panel of having no evidence of high crimes and misdemeanors. >> the sham impeachment of secretary mayorkas is a baseless political stunt. >> reporter: the articles include willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law and breach of public trust.

they allegedly secretary obstructed congressional oversight and failed to rein in record migrant crossings, which topped 10,000 per day last month. texas congressman tony gonzales represents eagle pass at the epicenter. why you do think the secretary's impeachment is warranted? >> it is very clear that whatever dhs is doing, they need to do something different. >> reporter: mayorkas defended the biden administration's policies, noting it has removed, returned, or expelled more migrants in three years than the trump administration. >> i have done all i can do. just give me the power. >> reporter: today, president biden said there is nothing more he can do through executive action and implored congress to pass a border security deal, but house speaker mike johnson reiterated any potential compromise in the senate may be dead on arrival. >> the president can take executive authority immediately, and he is pretending as though he does not know that. it's -- it's outrageous.

>> reporter: the white house is criticizing house republicans for threatening to block a potential package while at the same time calling for border fixes. some democrats call it hypocritical, since mayorkas helped craft that deal, and now, appears on the verge, potentially, of impeachment in the house, major. >> major: nikole killion, thank you. prosecutors in michigan today showed jurors police photos from the home of the teenage gunman who killed four fellow students at oxford high school in 2021. inside ethan crumbley's messy room, paper targets with bullet holes and an empty whiskey bottle. the case that held the murder weapon purchased as a gift days before the shootings, open and empty on his parents' bed. his mother, jennifer crumbley, now on trial for involuntary manslaughter, told police on the day of the murders that her son had never been in trouble, despite having to be called to school hours earlier to discuss a violent drawing he had made. she has pleaded not guilty. tonight, we are getting an exclusive, up-close look at the

of these door panels. first you have to remove two rows of seats, plus all of the cabin interior, just to get to the door panel. you're going to check the four key bolts that hold this in place, but then there is also 20 pages of measurements that have to happen before that plug can be deemed safe and this airplane put back into service. when the max 9 was grounded, alaska's fleet was scattered across the country. in hawaii, belize, and the caribbean, tracking the effort to get them inspected, through necessary maintenance checks, and to where they are needed for passenger flights, happens here, in the airline's network operations center. >> we had to make sure we had a safe and compliant path forward to operating these airplanes. so we did take it very slow and steady. >> reporter: bret peyton runs the noc and is also a 737 captain. what is your level of confidence in the max 9 today? >> 100%. i just had a new granddaughter three months ago, and my first granddaughter, and i'd put her on the airplane today. >> reporter: back in the air today, with all eyes on the 737 max 9. kris van cleave, cbs news, seattle. >> major: according to recent
